the waiting game

in the weeks proceeding the birth, i had more time than expected. in fact, i needed projects to help distract me, some a little ridiculous.
such as, a sock for our central vac:

a revived coffee table in progress. repainted, tiled with matte ceramic mosaic and some mirror tiles, now ready for grout and a glaze:

and some bike spats ready to sew:

i managed to update my stock inventory and tallied 60 wool pants, 15 "swallow" skirts, 10 shawls, 30 sloves, and a dozen doll kits, most of which was executed during the two weeks of waiting.

Christmas Gifts Finally Finished

Yikes! It has been ages...which isn't to say I haven't been doing anything. This blog was meant to remedy my problem with sewing and selling and not remembering, but alas I've just spent the last couple weeks preparing for tomorrow's sale and the goods are piling up. Here are some of my favourites:

I took some etsy shots today. Some worked and others, not so well. It's hard to photograph on my own, especially wearables. This one is my favourite...another pair of bike anklets.

on sunday, a pair of woollen anklets for cycling.
